HYPOS Ett system för hydrologisk positionsangivelse
1980 (Swedish)Report (Other academic)Alternative title
HYPOS - A Hydrological positioningsystem (English)
Abstract [sv]

Ett system för hydrologisk positionsangivelse (HYPOS) har utvecklats vid SMHI. I systemet beskrivs vattendrag, sjöar, kuster Och vattendelare med koordinatsatta linjer

Systemets parametrar för en punkt i ett vattendrag eller en sjö är:

Utloppskoordinater för vattendraget eller sjönLägeskoordinater för punktenAvstånd från vattendragets/sjöns utlopp till punktenHydrologisk kod för punktenNamn på vattendraget

Vattendragens mittlinje beskrivs med en stomlinje. Sjöar, kuststräckor, breda vattendragsdelar, vattendelare öar beskrivs med konturlinjer.

Länkning mellan sammanhörande vattendrag (stomlinjer) samt vattendrag (stomlinjer) och sjö (konturlinjer) görs med utloppspunkter och länkpunkter.

Länkning mellan källa och bifurkation samt mellan källa och förgrening görs med sekundär utflödespunkt, mellan led och inflödespunkt.

Abstract [en]

A hydrological positioning system (HYPOS ) which organizes the geographical locations of lakes and river networks has been developed at the Swedish Meteorological and HydrologicalInstitute (SMHI).

System parameters fora point are:

River/lake outlet co-ordinatesPosition co-ordinatesDistance from outlet (along a river skeleton line or a polygon)Hydrological codeName of river/lake

The central line of a river is described by a skeleton line.Lakes, coasts, catchment areas and islands are described as polygons.

Every line or polygon is linked toa superior line or polygon using outlet points and linkpoints.

A forking and its source are linked to a secondary outflow point, intermediate point and inflow point. An arm and its source are linked in the same way.

Points in a river are sorted with ascending distance from outlet. Main rivers and tributaries are sorted as follows: Main rivers,most downstream tri butary (A), tributaries to A, second mostdownstream tributary (8), tributaries to Band so on.

The system is stored on magnetic disc and consists of two file sSkeleton and Countour File and Index File.

The determination of the position is made in two steps. First the Index File is scanned. That results in a number of possible records in the Skeleton and Countour File. Secondly the possible records are carefully scanned.

The system has been tested on the rivers Tidan and Eskilstunaån.
